Story
Ned is a good boy-he is 5 years old and loves to play and loves attention. He loves kids. Unfortunately we are short on time and will be having my niece live with us this summer and she is very allergic to dogs. Never had an accident indoors, loves to snuggle. The downside is we never had time to have him around groups of other dogs so I am not sure how he would react.

Story
Tippy Trace is a 4.5 (almost 5) year old pit bull who was rescued from our organization over four years ago after an incident led her to lose her front left leg. Since then, she has been in a loving home with two children (ages 10 and 1.5) and another older female dog. She has had aggression issues towards the older female dog worsening over the last two years, leading to them needing to re-home her now. She does very well with children and is a lover of people. She loves to cuddle and play. She can run super fast and doesn’t even realize that she is a tripod! She loves to pop bubbles and play fetch! Tippy is in need of a dog-less home or possibly one with an older male dog. She would be a great companion for a single person or a family!
